Arrowroot Jelly

Soak the thin rind of a lemon and a table-spoonful of sifted sugar in a cupful of cold water. Let it remain four hours; then strain the liquid, and mix it with three table-spoonfuls or arrowroot, a table-spoonful of brandy, the juice of four lemons, and three drops of almond flavouring. Put it into a saucepan, and stir it until it is thick. Put it into a damp mould, or let it get cold; then serve it in glasses. Time to boil, five minutes. Probable cost, 8d., exclusive of the brandy. Sufficient for a half-pint mould.
